Xavier Henry, Anyone?

The Grizz are nickling and diming Xavier, making him jump through hoops to get a contract worth what almost all other rookies comparably get virtually automatically. And Memphis wonders why no one wants to play for them. Anyway, the guy is a quality kid, good defender, more than capable offensively, and can play the 2 or 3. I say we go after him! Thoughts?

I wanted the raps to draft Xavier if he fell to us (sadly he didn't) cause i love the way he defended and would be able to open the floor up with his great shooting. If we could possibly get him i'd be ecstatic.

We need to stockup the SF position. Not sure how well Henry (he is 19 and 6'6" and probably has a bit of growth left) fits in at that position. Trading him for Miami's 1st next year is probably something that could work. His defense and shooting are attractive...and comes from a good program.

I would take this guy in a New York minute. I liked his game and his media scrums. Very well spoken guy with a great basketball background. But, he'd have to be our 6th man type guy because it wouldn't make sense to start him over DeMar to stunt DD's growth by starting someone who has no NBA experience under his belt. If we DO get him, it would make the decision to have DD and Weems at the 2 & 3 as our Batman and Robin a bit more easier. He could come off the bench to help out whoever, out of DD and Weems, when they get tired. BC, getter dun!!!

Reasonable trade offer?

And, while we all have to remember that this appears to be but a minor speedbump in negotiations, it is never a bad idea to float a worthwhile trade offer to them - likely something similar to what follows:
